Often seen in Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN), arise as a consequence of immune system involvement and can have myriad health consequences. Both CIDP and MMN are characterized by complex presentations and frequent misdiagnoses. CIDP shows gradual peripheral nerve demyelination, leading to weakness and sensory loss, while MMN presents with asymmetric weakness devoid of sensory complications. With an array of treatment options, managing polyneuropathy in CIDP and MMN can be challenging. This collaborative platform serves as a unifying space for healthcare providers, facilitating the exchange of insights and elevating the standard of care for patients affected by CIDP and MMN. In this learning activity, you will learn how to enhance the lives of CIDP and MMN patients via a program promoting local and cross-community support, driving effective practice-sharing for better outcomes.

Brett Morrison

Johns Hopkins University
Associate Professor of Neurology

I am an Associate Professor, Director of the Neuromuscular fellowship program, and a neuromuscular clinician scientist practicing at Johns Hopkins University. I treat patients with many neuromuscular diseases, with a particular expertise in peripheral neuropathies such as CIDP. I am involved as a principal investigator in clinical trials for painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy and CIDP, and have a basic science laboratory studying the role of cellular metabolism in peripheral nerve function and regeneration.
